I got a good number of Redoubt Enterprises Indians some time a go. After seeing a lot of people painting and preparing bands for "Muskets and tomahawks" I just wanted to paint some Indians, so this is the first one.

More pictures on my blog: http://einarolafson.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/french-and-indian-war-indian-i.html.

Up to your usual oh-so-high standard, I see.
That face is wonderful!

What is the theory behind the extra high base?
Display purposes, I presume.

Thanks!! This is the theory behind the extra high base:

I bought several hundreds of them, they were very cheap

. And you can see why I'm using them in the second picture:

They are 27 x 3,3/3,4 mm so they aren't that big.

Great painting and I really like the bases. Easy to pick up and a hell of a lot easier than filling those thicker metal bases down.

Really lovely. I have 80 of these painted - great figures

Check out my F&IW LAF gallery if you're in need of any colour suggestions

Cpt. Blood, those pictures are splendid, as usual, but I would like to know where you got the figures but there is no indication on your gallery as to who made them. I really like the women.

einarolafson- I like your bases and painting style.

Great work.

I almost feel inspired to break open the box I still of these Redoubt Indians that has been languishing in the loft for years

Captain Blood · « **Reply #13 on:** April 14, 2013, 08:19:31 AM »
